Those seeking out a physical copy of Fire Emblem: Awakening may have to wait a little longer than expected. Amazon has reported a "potential shipping delay," while both GameStop and Best Buy have the Nintendo 3DS title presently listed as "unavailable."

So far our attempts to track down a copy in the wild have yet to yield tangible results. Retailers we contacted seem uncertain of when exactly the game will be released, giving a range of estimates over the next week or so. Should you be willing to settle for a digital copy, however, the strategy role-playing game is available now via the Nintendo eShop for $39.99.
